~Summary from Goodreads~
Katherine’s place is the same as any woman’s—on the shelf next to the dresses and bolts of cloth. When she’s sold to a warlock, life grows even bleaker. Her new owner is as old and rancid as he is cruel, driving her to do the unthinkable: run.
Nothing prepared her for being on her own. And she’s definitely unprepared for the warlocks hunting her down. But she must stay one step ahead because if caught, the best she can hope for is death.

~Excerpt~
“You’ve been owned your entire life. It's hard
to change from that even if it’s what you want.”
There’s a burning behind my eyes that grows and
spills onto my cheeks. He pulls a handkerchief from his pocket and hands it to
me. After I take it, his hand lingers on mine. It’s soft. Not his skin, though.
His skin is rough with callouses, but the way he touches me. Gentle, so unlike
the way other men grab and pinch and slap.
“It’s clean.” His words startle me from my
thoughts.
It takes me a moment to realize he’s referring
to the handkerchief. I dab my tears and laugh. “I didn’t know tarnished carried
handkerchiefs. I thought you weren’t allowed anything except your clothes and
materials you need for whatever job you are assigned.”
He smiles, warming me. “One thing about
tarnished. Always be prepared.”
“All tarnished or just you?” I offer the
handkerchief but he waves me away.
“Keep it. You need it more than I do.”
I fold the handkerchief and tuck it carefully in
my pack. “Thank you.”
